Use the 
Volume Extract tool in the Analysis group on the Prepare tab to create a solid based on the volume enclosed by a single body or set of bodies (including meshes). A solid named Volume is created in the Structure tree
, and the bodies used to generate the volume are temporarily transparent when the volume is created.
If a surface intersects all of the edges you select to enclose the region, it will be used to cap the created volume. You can create cleaner caps by placing surfaces at each of the edges you use to define the enclosed region.
In this tutorial you will learn how to extract a fluid volume using Ansys SpaceClaim. You can download the bodies from this link.

Ansys SpaceClaim – Parameterizing using Excel
SpaceClaim has created a plugin for Excel that allows Driving Dimensions saved into the groups panel to be transferred to Excel. This will allow users to drive parameters off each other and update the model based on this.
We share the same tutorial using ANSYS Fluent.
